Boeing seems keen to go ahead with a new jet sized between the largest single-aisle 737 and the smallest twin-aisle 787: a Boeing 797
The “paper plane” might soon turn into a real project, with first commercial flights in 2025.
The Boeing 797 will be capable of carrying more than 200 passengers, up to 260 depending on the configuration.
“One will be bigger and fly not quite as far, one will be smaller and fly farther,” Boeing marketing vice president Randy Tinseth told Bloomberg.

The picture was purely a fictional aircraft made for Flight Simulator X several years ago.
I changed it. Thanks!
